At The Beach With Fam🏝️

“We spent the whole day at the beach eating ice cream & hanging out😁

I guess I know what Laela’s favorite dessert is😏🍦”

Starting Out The Day☀️

“We started out the day by cooking our famous breakfast Kayson almost always makes (Kayson LK makes the BEST omelets & pancakes). I took over as Kayson needed to get an ingredient he forgot to get before starting. My older bro Tyson went to go get Laela out of her bed as she’s not really morning person (like me lol😅).

We then ate breakfast, got dressed in our bathing suits & finally got to the beach in time😁A few minutes after we settled, got our stuff out & put on sunscreen. I got the opportunity to show my engagement ring off to both of our older siblings that Kayson got me the yesterday evening as a surprise😊

I’m happy as clam that the love of my life decided it time to tie the knot🥹”

All night Rendezvous🥰

[Not really😅]

“I literally just couldn’t get enough of him as it had been quite some time since we had done it (been since before Laela was born ofc☺️)

It pretty much lasted for awhile until we fell asleep at like one a.m😘”

-Grace

A Night To Remember🥰

“One thing led to another & I don’t regret a thing☺️”

The Surprise and The Proposal He Planned💍

“Kayson is the most sweetest guy you’ll never meet. The fact that he pretty much planned this whole trip to be a proposal and vacay is beyond my beliefs. I can’t wait for our wedding day😁

I wonder what day we’ll pick for wedding. I kinda want a June wedding as I’m obsessed with the show TVD☺️”

Taking Care of our Neice👧🏼

“Laela was not happy when her parents left. Gotta say it wasn’t easy getting her to calm the hell down but eventually she stopped crying😮‍💨 Poor thing had a tiny separation anxiety & didn’t really know how to cope with it🥺I was like that too but was a bit older than her (like 3 or 4).

After her meltdown down we went back to the Airbnb to relax, take showers, get dressed to watch a movie. Almost as soon we got there she quickly forgot why she was crying in the first place & continued on with her day. It’s a good thing toddlers have a very short term memory & not remember things as well as we do😁

I just hope we can last until her parents get back before she has another meltdown. Parenting is not for the weak😅”

Meeting up with our Siblings👧🏼👩🏽‍🦱👱🏻🫂🧑🏽👩🏼👦🏽👱🏼‍♀️

“I called my big bro to ask when he & Steph were gonna be there & said that it would be soon. I didn’t mind waiting as we’ve only just arrived at the beach not long ago. Oh how I missed them so😩

They arrived not long after. We greeted them & hugged them as it’s been so long since we last met. Ofc Laela was shy at first but warmed up pretty quickly since it’d been a little while since she’s last saw them🥹(She sees Nat and Bry almost everyday but she’s not used to seeing Steph & Ty all that much)

We can get this day officially started at the beach😁”

Enjoying Our time in Sulani🏝️

“At last we finally arrived at the famous vacationing spot here in Sulani. It’d been since I was a little girl the last time I’d been here🥺

I came here with my immediate family here a couple of times in the past but hadn’t been here since I was a preteen since life became really busy afterwards so I haven’t been here with either siblings in a long time😞(what sucks is that Bryson may not remember the last time he was here as he was toddler the last time😔)

It’s Laela’s first time EVER coming here & I’m so excited to start a new tradition with her & *maybe* more to come in the future👀”

-Grace

Our First Flight Together ✈️

“After waking up, getting dressed, pack up all of our stuff, loading it into car, got in the the car & straight to the airport. We finally made it just in time to unload bags from trunk, get everyone out the car, get our tickets, find something to eat, eat kinda quickly & sit by the door to the airplane while we waited for Ty to drop off Bry.

They finally came & got Bry dropped off. We said a quick hi & goodbye to my older bro & he left (him & Kay’s older sis will be joining us later). After having him dropped off we just sat & talked about our trip & what we’re gonna all do while we’re there. Now we’re just gonna sit back, relax & wait to go on our long awaited vacay (we LK all needed it😅)

Sulani here we come😆”

Our Little Laelabug’s walking at Just One Yrs Old🥹

“We knew that most babies started walking younger but for some reason Laela just didn’t have the courage or had the strength to start walking younger than so yeah. This was the moment that she finally walked for the first time ever and succeeded. We were so proud of her😁

Look at her GO😆 She’s not so little anymore🥺”

-Grace

Happy One Yr Birthday, Laela🥳

“To my daughter Laela. Your father & I am so proud you were brought into this world with full of love, family & laughter. We can’t believe you made it to 1. Felt like it was yesterday you were just born. Now we’re both slightly worried about you getting older than just 1. I don’t think we’re quite ready for you to be older. Just stay age forever PLEASE🥺🙏

You’re the cutest one year old I’ve ever seen🥹We can’t wait to spend many more with you😁

-Grace

Laela’s Milestones at 6 Months Old🚼

“OMG how is she half a year old already😱It blows my mind of all the things she can do at such a young age🤯

She can now crawl, sit up, put teething rings in her mouth (as she’s already teething), eating solids but is not a huge fan of it, practicing to say mama or dada (having a harder time saying mama tho😣) & LOVES playing peekaboo🥰

That’s all that she’s doing at th is stage in life but there’s many more to come😁”

Photo Dumps of Laela as a Newborn🥹

“Just had to share these ics of Kayson & I’s family & friends of mine holding Laela as a newborn😁She was the cutest thing to EVER exist to us as new parents, grandparents, godparents & niece🥰

Oh how I wish I could freeze the time to cherish those moments again🥺”

The Last Weeks of Me Being Pregnant🤰🏽

“These were the last few weeks of me being pregnant & giving birth to Laela back in 2020. It was pretty hard but also very chill as I’ve only wanted a home birth so not going to the hospital to give birth wasn’t a problem for us😌

Our doula almost came late but got here on time as Laela was getting ready to come out into the world. We’re actually friends with our doula who’s been very helpful in our pregnancy journey with our children (IYKYK)”

The Gender Reveal💙🩷

“The day we found the gender of our baby was the happiest day of my life. Having everyone we love there was EVERYTHING to me😭

A GIRLLLL😁👏

Nothing against having boys but all my life I grew with brothers (I LOVE them but don’t get me wrong they can be annoying AF😒😂) & for the longest I wanted to have a sister but that day never came so having a girl was a HUGE blessing for me & my immediate family😄

Gotta give a HUGE thanks to both my bestie Kaylee & Kayson’s parents. Kaylee for setting up the gender reveal deco as she was the only one that KNEW the gender of the baby & is the best party decorator so she had to be the one to do this for us☺️

Kayson’s parents because they came a long way from being rude & disrespectful to Kayson & I’s relationship & the beginnings of my pregnancy to trying to work things out with the both of us to try being the best parents, 2nd parents (to me) & grandparents to us & our unborn baby girl. I can never thank them enough for changing their life around for us🥰”

The Nerve Racking Call with My Parents😖

“After finding out that I was gonna be father. It took a lot of courage & guts to call my own parents about the news😣I hesitated first if I should call them the same day as but I waited a couple of days to help calm my nerves. Thank GOD I had Grace by side to talk to & gave me the courage to call them as it was a much needed discussion to talk to them about😌

I ofc expected the worse as my parents are very strict in what me & my siblings do. I just didn’t give two sh*ts about what they were saying to me as I was proud to have become a father😁I mean yes we’re both teens but we’re both adults as well. We have a stable home & income so how dare them for being so inconsiderate & rude to both Grace & I😡I was so ready for this conversation to be done & over with😩

This is the whole conversation that I had with my parents ok the phone was the last time I EVER spoke to them & didn’t regret a thing AT ALL😌They deserve every bit of silent treatment & disrespect they get from me as they did to me all my life😔

-Kayson

Finding Out Being Parents for the First Time as Teen Parents😖

“Finding out that we were gonna become first time parents as teens is something no parent of ours would like to hear come out of our mouths. Yes we’re older teens but we’re also considered adults at the ripe young age of 18 & 19 years old.

I was so scared at the time because I know my parents are gonna be more so disappointed than actually angry at me because they’ve gone through the same thing we have but a little younger so they understood what it was like for us🥺 Kayson’s parents on the other hand not so much as they’re stricter than my parents & had rules that even my family could NEVER even consider having😣

The first of having to get ultrasound was confirmation enough as soon as I heard the heartbeat I just knew I was pregnant. The second time I go I had to go by myself as C-19 had approached so I had to go by myself but as soon as the appointment was done & went home. I immediately had to show Kayson the first EVER pic of our baby. He was so shocked & excited to finally to get see who he’s speaking to at night lol😂

Then that same day but at night he was having second thoughts of having to tell his parents about the news as it’s been weeks since he hasn’t told them about the news. I reassured him in saying that when you’re ready to tell them, you can. It’s not up to them. It’s up to YOU😌

[Admin: Sorry the pics are all over the place but I kinda wanted to sum up Grace’s pregnancy in one post as her whole first pregnancy is IG if you wanna scroll down long enough to find it☺️]

Evolution of Steph & I’s Relationship👩🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏽

“Hi I’m Tyson & this is just a photo progression of Steph & I’s relationship😊

From being strangers to lovers is something I guess you can label how our relationship is now. Steph & I actually met in college. I had NO clue she was & neither did she🤨

I happened to accidentally bump into her one day while going to the gym & she was coming out of her sorority dorm😅 Crazy how we’d end up being in a relationship especially with our own middle siblings being in a relationship first🙃

That first photo of us is actually taken when we became somewhat friends. I’d see her when we hung out with Grace & Kayson but nothing more than that. In the 5th one we were clearly in our aunt & uncle era but felt like it looked more like first time parents lmao😅

As you can see the last photo of the both of us when we were pregnant. Yes we were expecting at the time but now our baby is out & is almost 2 yrs old🥹”

[Admin: Again these are just photos I compiled to sum up the relationship between Tyson & Stephanie. For those who don’t know Ty & Steph eventually fell pregnant together as well but unexpectedly & are happy about the outcome😊]

The Evolution of My & Bryson’s Relationship🙃

“Hi it’s Natalie here & I’m gonna give you guys a brief update of how & Bryson’s relationship is☺️

We first started off as acquaintances as we didn’t who each other were at the time. Back then I didn’t really want anything to do with boys as 1 I was too young & 2 my parents didn’t allow me to hang out with boys. So once Bryson & I saw more & more of each other the more I got to know him better. We quickly became friends but had to ask my mom & dad if it was ok. They said it was but only just friends.

So one day the day of Christmas it was just us as we were just about to go inside from being in the snow & I had the urge to KISSS Bryson right on the lips for the first time EVER🫣It was soooo embarrassing because right after that I ran away embarrassed & hid from him🥺 I bet he thought I ran away from him but we finally talked it out after awhile & said I wouldn’t do it again unless he wanted me too when we’re older😌

Fast forward 5 yrs & now we’re boyfriend & girlfriend. You can’t see it much in the last few pics of us but that was when we were freshmans in HS. We’re now juniors & are still together although I’m not too sure if we’re gonna be together any longer this year as we’re seeing each other less & less now🥺

Wish us the best of luck😊”

An Update on My Friends👩🏽🫂👩🏻👩🏻‍🦰👩🏾👩🏼

“As you can tell my friend group has definitely expanded in the last 7 years of my life since you last saw them😁(Not the last 4 yrs shown so more like 3).

So you guys already know Kaylee & Kristyn but you don’t who the rest are & I’m about to tell y’all:

Imani Hayes- my beautiful black bestie who I’ve met while still in highschool. She was at the end of her freshman year while I was at the end of my junior year. A year after I had just finished highschool she was still in so when she was just finishing sophomore year she told me she was pregnant.

She was so terrified of the thought of being so that she didn’t even know who to tell first. She hadn’t even told her family nor her BF at the time so I was the first to know. She didn’t mind as during that time I’d became pregnant with Laela while she was in her junior year so she knew who to speak to first.

I told her all the things I knew when I was at the time but also told that every woman experiences pregnancy differently. She finally had the courage to tell both parents & BF but her BF wanted nothing to do with her nor the baby but her family was very supportive. Ofc her mother was angry but quickly accepted the fact & started supporting her through out her entire pregnancy.

So when she was almost at the end of her junior year she gave birth to a baby girl Shayna. Born 2 mths before Laela turning 2 so at Laela’s b-day party Imani & her little one Shayna were invited & finally got to hold Shayna for the first time as a newborn. The next time I saw Shayna was 6 mths later. So that’s who you see in the last one when we got to see to new Little Mermaid with the kiddos😁

[Admin: If you wanna see more on her go to my IG]

Dr.Richmond- I met Dr. Richmond when I had found out I was pregnant with Laela. She had a little baby at the time (McKenna, who is being held in the 6th photo) who is now friends with Laela so how the tables turn☺️I really don’t how we became friends but it turned it because Laela was able to make friends her daughter & friendship grew stronger from there😁

Dr. Richmond was a sonogramer when I met her but was also a Dr which at the same was rare at the time. She told me then that she was a single mother as well & when she told me at appointments I went alone for I couldn’t help but cry for her as I couldn’t imagine what life was like for her raising a baby all by herself😭

She then told she & her younger sister were living in a townhouse together raising her so it put my mind & heart at ease😌She, her sister (who’s a nurse) & her daughter McKenna are all doing well now. Both Dr Richmond & her daughter are living in a bigger & nicer house & her sister moved out & is living in the house next to hers. Dr Richmond now has a sweet & handsome BF😊

Kaylee- She moved out of her parents’ house almost immediately after HS & has been living in her current BFs house with their twins (who are almost 2 yrs old). So she’s doing fairly well😁

Lastly Kristyn- She adopted a little girl named Daphne’s year before she turned 3 in a new relationship she got in a year after they got together. They’re in it for the long run & are expecting a baby boy later this year☺️

That is all the updates from all of my old & new friends I’ve made from over the years. Thanks for reading them all🥰”

The Relationship of Natalie, Bryson & Their Niece Laela👩🏼🧑🏽🩷👧🏼

“Hey it’s me, Bryson!!

These are just some of the pics of Natalie, I & Laela’s relationship from the past 2 years over but here’s a summary in words of how it went😊

Meeting Laela for the first time as a newborn was exhilarating for me (I don’t know what it was like for Nat lol😅). Growing up I HATED being the youngest in our family. Getting babied & having everyone in your family treat like one for years even after being in school was TOOO much😫

So having a sibling would’ve made things a lot easier for me growing up but alas that day never came unfortunately😞The day I heard the news I was gonna be an uncle made it seem things were possible that I’d stop getting babied & it DID😁

I was so happy but also weirded out of how young of an uncle I’d be but that didn’t mattered to me😌Being an uncle to a little baby was something I’ve always dreamt about & that was it. I wished I would’ve been there for the birth of my niece but it was late I was already in bed & tired for the day🥺

It wasn’t until weeks later until I was able to hold her for the first time EVER in my arms. She was the cutest thing I EVER did see. Her eyes were so tiny, dark & cute that they were closed half of the time I was there anyway so too bad about me not being able to see her beautifully cute eyes while they were open😩

That time Natalie & I were both there so we had to share who was gonna hold her. I can’t remember but I believe I held her first so HA I beat you to it Nat😆Just kidding just kidding😂

As time went on little Lae Lae got bigger & bigger & so did our little friendship we were making🥹It wasn’t long until she starting walking & then talking. So now she can hold conversations longer than both me & Natalie can😅”

Meet My BFFs Kaylee & Kristyn👩🏻👩🏻‍🦰

“These here are my besties since forever. Well actually let me take you back☺️

The year was 2007 at the young of 5 & just started kindergarten. That’s where I first met Kaylee. Then in 2009 at the age 7 we both met Kristyn in the same class we were both in😁

To let you in on a bestie secret just between me & you. Kaylee didn’t like Kristyn at first as she was too “nerdy” for her which was weird for to say because she was actually nerdier than she was lmao😂Like make it make sense😅

We went from strangers to BFFs in a span of 15+ years & now we’re all mothers. How wonderful could life be atm🥹

[Admin: These are just old pics of her & her friends as you can tell so when I start posting new pics of her & friends you can tell the difference😊]

Laela’s 2nd Birthday🎂

“2 yrs ago was our first born daughter’s 2nd birthday & what a day to remember🥹

Getting to invite all her family & friends as well as my friends was one of the absolute BEST parts of her birthday. Celebrating it was the other BEST part😁

That year was more fun to celebrate as we were able to actually pick out a theme for her birthday & got to invite people we know & love to that years’ party. That was the fun part for me☺️

In the last 3 pics are of her BFFs Mckenna (brown hair) and Daphne (red hair) who’s parents are friends with me too😊 Daphne’s mother (who she adopted as a baby) is my BFF since my childhood days. McKenna’s mother is my bestie who was my doula & midwife for both of my births

Who knew at the age of 2 she’d make more friends I’ve had in the span of 2 yrs of making friends at the age of 5 til the age of 7 lol😅”
